Review on Makita ADP05 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Power Source: Enhance Your Portability and Versatility by Muleme Anderson

I got this to do weird stuff. I am powering a Raspberry Pi 3 B and a portable USB SSD. All three parts fit in my backpack. It's a wireless access point and file server with my tech utilities and billing software. He accompanies me wherever I work. This adapter and 3Ah battery will power the above setup all day and still have enough capacity to charge my mobile phone. I haven't found a USB powered printer that I like yet, but this is the closest. I may also need to upgrade to a 6ah battery. I also use this campsite to charge my son's cell phone for use with his Dexcom G6. Holds up well all weekend. Also used to charge an RC drone and helicopter battery on site. The adapter is very efficient in converting direct current to direct current. Best of all, I can quickly remove the adapter and still use the battery with power tools! Nothing to complain about, because the thing is super. But I wish the USB ports were on the other side. When I put it on my belt, the USB ports face down. I don't see them plugging and unplugging things. It would be better if they were at the top, or maybe one at the top and one at the bottom. It also doesn't have a flashlight, which would be a nice addition too, but I can just plug in a USB flashlight, so it's not necessary. Finally it would be great to be able to top charge the battery with this adapter, I'd love to plug it into an outlet or solar panel. I wish I had this on my solar powered belt on my backpack while running like a cyborg in the sun.
